Target group: Visually, mobility and mentally impaired people.People with disabilities in the Nilgiris region face considerable challenges that severely affect their quality of life and participation in social life, as well as their already precarious economic situation. More than 20.000 people with disabilities are affected .Many of them live in tribal and rural areas in poor conditions. These people often experience marginalization and discrimination, even from their own family members. Their disability is often seen as a burden as they are unable to do paid work or help with domestic tasks. This leads to a dependence on family support, which severely limits their ability to live independently.Caring for family members with disabilities often leads to poor treatment as families already living in poverty rely on labour to support themselves and the family’s limited resources are stretched even further. In addition to the social challenges, these families face financial burdens due to the special needs of people with disabilities. The cost of specialized healthcare and medical supplies is often prohibitive, creating further financial difficulties for already disadvantaged families.Disability and poverty are closely linked and create a vicious circle. On the one hand, poverty often leads to disabilities due to malnutrition, a lack of education or a lack of medical care. On the other hand, disabled people are particularly affected by poverty. This is also reflected in a lack of access to education, health services or income opportunities. The situation requires holistic support measures to improve the living conditions for people with disabilities.
